    Continuity and change in the cult of the dead: Shaping kin formation in the Peruvian Andes (A.D. 1000–1600)
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2024-01-01)
    This paper presents the results of archaeological investigations within funerary contexts at the site of Marcajirca (a.d. 1000–1600) in the north-central highlands of Peru. The results suggest the existence of various population groups, or ayllu members, that were buried at this site. Two contemporary types of tombs are predominant, funerary caves and chullpas, along with two belowground tombs, which are atypical in the region. Bioarchaeological analyses indicate that all the tombs were collective and that the remains were manipulated over time. The evidence from Marcajirca points to important changes in funerary patterns with respect to the previous period, including tombs being incorporated into residential places and, later in time, tombs as created, extra, private spaces by enclosing the chullpas within patios where rituals such as burning of offerings were practiced. The results are discussed within the context of the cult of the dead and the formation of ayllus.

    Tipología y contextos de las estructuras funerarias durante el Intermedio Tardío en la cuenca del río Puccha, provincia de Huari, Áncash
    (Universidad Nacional de Ancash "Santiago Antunez de Mayolo", 2025-06-06)
    La evidencia arqueológica respecto a las tumbas durante el período Intermedio Tardío es quizá las más abundante en los andes centrales respecto a otros períodos, principalmente en la sierra. Esta investigación se centra en la región Conchucos de Áncash, donde a través de prospecciones sistemáticas y excavaciones se han identificado una serie de tumbas que dan luces sobre las costumbres funerarias de los grupos étnicos huari y pincos, quienes habitaron esta región durante el periodo mencionado. Basado en la variedad de estructuras funerarias, se presenta una tipología de tumbas que ayuden a estandarizar las descripciones y nomenclatura de las tumbas en la región de Áncash.
